auto racing insurance

[DSMaffection]

In california, im curious to know what type of insurance is needed for an individual to open a drag racing strip. Assuming the zoning is approved, what other legal steps would it take to do this? This is for a business open to the public, not private.

This is a very VERY specialized issue. Your best bet would be to join up with one of the sanctioning bodies. These typically will have a lot of the competition insurance as part of the fees you pay them (and all the rules for waivers from the crews/drivers). In addition, you'll need general business liability to cover things like a spectator tripping in the stands. You'll probably also need to worry about zoning issues, health department issues (if you're going to serve food). etc...
